As noted above, EMHTF just announced that a major partner of the company, MediPharm Labs Corp., just received its sales license from Health Canada pursuant to the Cannabis Act.

According to the release, MediPharm Labs is research-driven and focused on downstream secondary extraction methodology, distillation and cannabinoid isolation and purification. MediPharm Labs currently operates one of the largest cannabis concentrate manufacturing facilities in Canada and is built to cGMP (current Good Manufacturing Practices) and ISO standards. Leveraging MediPharm Lab’s proprietary pharmaceutical manufacturing expertise, the Company currently has Phase 1 capacity to process over 100,000 kg of dry cannabis per year. With Phase 2 funded and expected to be completed by the end of Q2 2019, the Company anticipates that its processing capacity will more than double to up to 250,000 kg annually upon the completion of such expansion.

The deal between EMHTF and MediPharm is a 3-year agreement announced on October 10 that stipulates EMHTF will provide MediPharm with dried cannabis to create premium quality cannabis oil. The establishment of the sales license should set the demand process into motion and further energize operations at Emerald.
